Oicunn, Yorr, and "Epsilon Leader" - All power to the engines!

By iamfanboy, in X-Wing Squad Lists

So my local meta loves stress, and also loves some Imperial Aces style lists - man, I'm starting to hate the Phantom! - and I thought to myself, "Well, how about using Oicunn to avoid all of those pesky to-hit rolls?"

55 Captain Oicunn - Daredevil, Ysanne Isard, Engine Upgrade, Dauntless

26 Captain Yorr - Anti-Pursuit Lasers

19 "Epsilon Leader"

The basic idea is that Epsilon Leader tries to keep Stress off his buddies, while Captain Yorr takes the Dauntless stress from Oicunn and puts himself in the prospective path of any Aces for APL. Oicunn's upgrades are bare-bones - just what he needs for the two ramming damage per turn and Isard for defensive goodness.

I thought about a Wingman TIE/fo instead of Yorr, but he's so durable that he'll be taking stress for Oicunn well into the endgame, and might even win me games if they focus too much on Oicunn and he's undamaged in the endgame.
